Right to Know

Right to Know

Governor Edward G. Rendell signed the new Right To Know law on February 14, 2008 fundamentally changing the way people access public records of their government, and the way government processes those requests. The new law created the Office of Open Records to help implement and enforce Act 3 of 2008. A significant role of the Office of Open Records is to provide guidance for the new law, which fully takes effect January 1, 2009.
